Introduction

The print server is available for TCP/IP printing through
the Unix lpd (Line Printer Daemon) protocol. The lpd
protocol originated with Unix release is based on the BSD
version of Unix and supported under most versions of
Unix.
This chapter explains how to configure the print server
for TCP/IP operation, and how to modify configuration
files on your Unix system to allow printing to the print
server. The configuration examples in this manual follow
the syntax for BSD based Unix systems. Please refer to
the related system documentation for the correct syntax of
your systems.
To configure the print server for lpd printing, perform the
following procedures below:
1. Enable the HPS3P's TCP/IP Support.
2. Set the HPS3P's IP address.
3. Verify the HPS3P's IP Address.
4. Configure remote lpd printing on the host.
5. Print a test page.
In the next section, we will describe these five procedures
in depth.
